Friendcations: Margaritaville at Sea is an Easy and Affordable Getaway for All

After several years of limited travel experiences, friendcations are trending as a fun and cost-effective way to reconnect and enjoy time away with those you love, but probably haven’t seen in a while. The best friendcations have something for everyone – excellent food, an abundance of good drinks, endless entertainment, and plenty of opportunities to make memories trying something new. Margaritaville at Sea, a floating island vacation, is emerging as an ideal friendcation destination, as it travels the Caribbean between Palm Beach and Grand Bahama, and offers experiences for groups of all ages. As experts in cultivating fun over long-weekends away, Margaritaville at Sea shares guidance on how to plan a trip that is the perfect backdrop for a reunion with friends. 

 

Good Food

Dining options can make or break a good trip. For better or worse, food will always leave an impression, and group members often have varying food preferences. With five dining venues offering both casual and upscale dining, as well as a never-ending buffet, even the most picky eaters or most discerning of pallets have plenty of options to delight their taste buds over the three-day cruise. For those looking to toast to their years of friendship, The 5 o’Clock Somewhere Bar and Grill, offers cocktails worthy of celebrating.

 

Award-Winning Entertainment

Late-night comedy hours, game shows, and streaming concerts at sea are can't-miss opportunities meant for friends to experience together. On board The Paradise, the nightly activities give friends the option to enjoy exclusive musical performances as a group or explore Margaritaville at Sea’s talented performers in smaller pairs. Vegas may not have an ocean, but the ocean does have a casino, and The Par-A-Dice Casino dishes out good times for those of any experience level.

 

New Experiences

Among the exotic marine life and beautiful beaches, the islands of the Bahamas are famous for their swimming pigs – a unique and highly Instagrammable experience for friends. The warm waters and tropical setting of the Caribbean offer many unique experiences for friends to enjoy together-- whether the group is adventurous explorers or beachside sunbathers. 

 

Relaxation

Friends who are choosing their friendcation destination with true relaxation in mind can also enjoy the sun-bathed decks of The Paradise. For those seeking a bit of pampering or celebrating a special moment,  a full-service salon and spa with state-of-the art treatments, ranging from therapeutic massages to purifying body wraps, can be a great way to relax and spend time together.


The most important part of any reunion is enjoying the reconnection, and time and money should not be barriers to enjoying unique and memorable experiences. With a signature Margaritaville lifestyle theme, and the chance to try something new around every corner, this getaway is an easy and affordable trip for friends looking to reconnect for a little fun in the sun.
